Top 3 Manchester pancake places ft. Oak Street Cafe & Moose

Don’t put up with sub-standard, soggy, homemade pancakes come Tuesday 17 February – let the professionals do it for you and dare to try something other than lemon and sugar…

Pancake Corner – The Good, The Bad & The Spicy
They’ve a whole menu dedicated to the delightful rounds of batter at Pancake Corner and toppings come savoury or sweet, so you’re kind of obliged to have two – one for main and another for dessert. Choose from cajun chicken or spinach and cheese to start, and follow up with ‘The Good, The Bad and The Spicy’ – apple, Nutella and cinnamon.
Pancake Corner, 52 Gloucester Road, Urmston, M41 9AE, Tel: 0161 956 2567, www.pancakecorner.co.uk

Oak Street Cafe – Maple & bacon
With decent helpings of freshly made, healthy grub, the Craft Centre’s cafe is a great choice any day of the week – and on Shrove Tuesday, it’s doubly good because you can treat yourself to a pancake with yoghurt and blueberries, or a classic American one with bacon and maple syrup.

Moose Coffee (pictured) – Salted caramel pancakes
Nothing comes in small sizes at Moose Coffee – including the pancakes, which come in a stack of three with lashings of topping. Choose from cinnamon-spiced apple covered in salted caramel, maple syrup AND butter, or chocolate with peanut butter.
